Two days short of two years ago, I posted
Janus for ABC Wednesday for the first time. I re-read it and discovered that nearly all of the commenters are still playing this delightful ABC Wednesday meme. I decided to repost Just for fun and because, in all that time, change has happened but some things Just don't change.
What Janus Sees
Pocked by nimble hooves
five o’clock stubble clings,
stubborn in wind-chilled sun.
One six-pack of scrub jays
scatters the silence,
tepid spring forces its way
upon the barren brow
defined by seasoned gray.
Pen and ink sketch by Sue.

I love it! And we do have fun, don't we? Amazing what entertainment one can derive from the alphabet! Have a great week!

I'm glad you posted it again. I wasn't doing ABC wednesday when you posted it before.
That was a fun idea for the J-post!! Loved the pen and ink sketch, beautiful lines in the picture and in the poem!!
Five o'clock stubble. I love that mental picture and your pen sketch too. Glad you reposted this.
And just as worthy a second time.
Hey excellent second time around. Love the poem and the sketch.
Yes, ABC Wednesday is a lot of corporate fun.
I wasn't around two years ago therefore it is new to me.
Thanks for visiting my ABC post today.
Yes, it's still clever!

Very interesting J and so pretty too.
Please come and meet the J's in my Family, hope to see you around, thanks!
PS.. I just followed your blog.
The ABC meme is great,isn't it? I think I joined in in 2005
Definitely worth posting again, and an interesting thought. I think I had just started the ABC addiction around that time.
This is my first time to read this, thanks for sharing! And thank you for the visit too. Happy Wednesday!

Glad you reposted, - some things deserve to be said twice!
I remember that and I am not one of those who participate, but certainly stil appreciate it! ; )
What a great way to start they day-- with a little poetry! What if Janus looks in the other direction?
A very neat description of the advent of spring - slow, determined, victorious at last.
My first Jaunt with ABC Wednesday and loved the poem and inking. It is a dreary 'still winter' day out, and the poem just feels 'right.'
Thanks,
Meryl

Maybe this is how the alphabet should be taught to kids. What fun they would have running around finding things to match the letters.
Your words truly tumble. :-)
fun verse,
lovely rhymes.
I came to it new and found it delightful. Change or not, I for one am glad you reposted.
What is good is worthwhile repeating. Happy ABC Wednesday!
O love the pen and ink...and the words!
